Speaking of God in an Inhumane World, Volume 1

Theology

“Christopher Rowland paints a compelling portrait of the pragmatic possibilities of theology when it bravely engages the valiant struggle of marginalized communities around the globe. Informed by Rowland’s lifelong commitment to a liberating and radical Christianity, this book unflinchingly addresses the abuses and misuses of religion, while fearlessly insisting that religion at its best is a potent force for promoting abundant life for all.”

The Journey and Promise of African American Preaching

Preaching & Worship

“This book immerses readers in a sophisticated, multi–voiced soundtrack. Kenyatta Gilbert persuasively calls for ministers to preach in three voices—prophet, priest, and sage. He also amplifies keynotes from other disciplines such as practical theology, cultural studies, and pedagogy. As the Bible says, 'Faith comes by hearing.' After hearing this book, your faith in preaching will be renewed.”

The Last Blues Preacher

History & Biography

“The voice of Clay Evans, the legendary Chicago pastor and social activist, reverberates throughout this marvelous book. With a poet’s passion and a professor’s precision, Zach Mills chronicles Evans’s tenacious faith and audacious creativity. This faith enabled Evans to overcome social barriers for the sake of social justice. This creativity empowered Evans to use broadcast media as an electronic pulpit from which he has inspired so many. After reading The Last Blues Preacher, you won’t have the blues anymore. Your soul will sing gospel.”

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Este libro invita a los lectores contemporaneos a examinar nuevamente el clasico interes Paulino en el tema de la santificacion. Investigando Ro. 6-8, el autor de este libro demuestra que la santidad fue un pilar sustancial sobre el cual san Pablo construyo su teologia. Mas que presentar a un Pablo ensimismado en doctrinas abstractas, el Dr. Adewuya presenta a un Pablo profundamente preocupado con las demandas concretas del discipulado.”

Youthful Preaching

Preaching & Worship

“Through a bold exploration of adolescents as preachers in our pulpits and listeners in our pews, this book on youthful preaching renews the age-old practice of Christian proclamation. Richard Voelz nimbly converses with homiletic history, contemporary theories of liberation, and rhetorical criticism to enlarge our homiletic imagination, thereby making room for wise younger voices that a weary world desperately needs to hear.”
